In this paper is we apply insights from mechanism design to the design of agent interaction protocols. We show how this allows us a more flexible approach to the design of agent ...
The architecture of software systems is known to decay if no counter-measures are taken. In order to prevent this architectural erosion, the conformance of the actual system archi...

A new parallel-type gripper mechanism is proposed in this work. This device has a parallelogramic platform that can be flexibly folded. Therefore, this mechanism not only can be u...
A framework to design simulation models is described in order to perform activity-based costing for flexible manufacturing systems before actual manufacturing activities. For illu...
